Yep. That black '40 coupe is perfect. I wouldn't change a thing except the name on the title!
Exactly...
'39 taillights are a lot narrower than your existing openings, but a paint blend might work. It is proper black, after all. The Zephyr...
Sorry, no info from me on its current whereabouts. But, it sure was a badass little car. Love the personal pictures you posted. Here's to...
Beautiful artwork. Beautiful car. What's not to love? I'll take the former for my living room wall, and the latter in my garage. Just let me...
Cushenberry was the god of candy apple red! I love the wheel/tire combo. I have those wheels, hmmmmm.
Yep, just cleaned my garage out of tons of cool stuff. Will be selling. Need some '39 $$$.
I remember reading Conder's "Kwik E. Shift" story when I was a kid. It stuck with me because it was the "I hate fiberglass front ends!"...
That mock up is bitchin'. I love moon discs on wide whitewalls. Lately, I've found myself digging full wheelcovers (Stude, Olds Fiesta, even...
Very sage advice here. I wasted a lot of money and years of my life on "kinda cool" cars, before I finally asked myself what I REALLY wanted to...
Thanks to another great friend, I was able to swap out the big ol' straight shift lever that kept knocking into my steering wheel, for the proper...
Well, I posted a little while back on here, when I brought this lil' gem home from Bellingham, WA. My progress is slow, but methodical, and I'm...
Woops, after looking at the photo again, that must be a mono-shock FRONT setup. My bad. Can't wait to see it with some of your own touches....
I'm with you here, too, Boones. I heard through the grapevine that my friend who works at Hot Rod Fab. is super stoked on making the Great 8. He...
Well, there you go. No moss grows on your hairy palms, sir! Beautiful car, Kirk. Have any more pics of the rear mono-tube shock setup?...
What's this, Kirk? I must've missed your new purchase. My headlights are those awful sealed beam conversions, as you can see in my avatar, but...
Very nice. That's a keeper, right there.
My buddy bought those for his '47 Ford Sedan. They are beautiful. I helped him lug those out of the building, and felt kinda' weird, like...
You're killin' me with those gorgeous shots of your '39, Ryan! I am jonesin' so bad to get mine on the road this spring, fingers crossed....
I love that car in an unhealthy way. The picture I took of it at HotRodArama 2 or 3 was my screen saver for years. Very cool to find that...
That's bitchin'. I love tubs. They were everywhere back in the day, then went into hiding. Bringin' 'em back with some style!
I would name it the "Spaced Needle" and wear a Weedle suit to drive around in it. Remember the "Weedle from the Needle" Supersonics mascot?
Very cool.
Damn. That is so cool to see yet another iconic car faithfully recreated. Ricklefs is the man, showing how it's done with those flame...
Voted for ya'! I did my share of fetching Grain Belts from the fridge for my Dad and various uncles, back in Crosby, MN. Scorpion...
Very cool! I was stoked to find a vintage, cast puller for the rear drums on my '39 Tudor. It was in the trunk, and it worked like a charm....
I love that '40 DeLuxe! When I was a kid, my cousin and I talked my dad into buying a '40 DeLuxe Tudor that had been rodded in the Sixties....
It has aftermarket sealed beam conversions, and I plan to replace them with '39 rings and lenses. I do love the coupes, but with two little...
Nah, I'm not about to go changing a bunch of stuff, for the sake of "updating". Blech, I hate to even use that word... My philosophy is "fix...
